More Radiant than Gems

by

Ronald G. Auguste

For Fouley Diakite

Although yours tell the eyes they're formed from pearl,
They did not come to you from the blue sea....
They're whiter, and they gleam; and on you, girl,
They're so spectacular they sing to me!
Seldom have I seen such as years go by:
Bright, beautiful, and clean -- to an extreme!
More radiant than gems that glaze the eye,
They scintillate like jewels in a dream!

Nature was kind to them; but kinder, still,
You must have been to them in daily care;
With such continued care, they always will
Remain a joy to see, beyond compare!

How rich is he who gazes ... and then sips
Wine from these rarer pearls between your lips!
